I actually thought about having a tatoo of a flowerpot done but I didn't know if anyone would be able to tell if I am a Gibson or not so I didn't! So now I am thinking of having Sam Bush's mando tatooed on me.

If F-model mandolins have F-holes then why don't A-model mandolins have A-holes???

Nothing to do with Harley, though that could be cool....
I just happen to be a watch nut and love Swiss hand made watches. I thought they would be cool and something to let us mandogeeks show our love for the product. I guess they are the ultimate accesory for those of us who have all the other things we can put with our babies. Anyway, they are mega cool, look great, and actually tell time with no batteries needed!

I neglected to photograph the back of the watch. It's glass and you can see the watch engine movement. A fascinating piece of machinery to say the least. I'm glad it's just mandolins I'm nuts over. These things would be dangerous as a hobby.

Mandoman...That is a fair start to a watch collection! I wish I could afford some of the cool ones I see. Oh well, I'll have to settle with my humble few. Oh, by the way, you don't have a Gibson watch yet???

True story-- back when I was a podiatrist an elderly gentleman came in as a new patient and as we were having an introductory chat I commented on the tattoo on his arm. It was a WWII era Betty Grable style pinup.I asked him if he got it while he was in the military. He replied "Yes. Now I'm old and wrinkled and so is she"
